+{{ :misc:hacks:taranisx9d.png?200|}} If you already own a Taranis X9D (Plus) RC transmitter and want to use it as a controller, it can be configured to work with the Crazyflie Android client.
+Fortunately the transmitter is able to act as an USB Joystick (see https://github.com/opentx/opentx/wiki/OpenTX-USB-Joystick).
-Fortunately the transmitter is able to act as an USB Joystick (see https://github.com/opentx/opentx/wiki/OpenTX-USB-Joystick), but first you need to create a new model for this configuration:
+===== Create a new model for the Taranis X9D (Plus) =====

-  * you need to configure the thrust input (Weight 50% and Offset 50%)
-    * otherwise you can not use the full travel of the axis assigned to thrust
-  * Servos menu
-    * invert Thrust (CH1)
-    * invert Eleron (CH3)
-You can also download the configuration as an EEPE file and install it with the OpenTX Companion application.
+===== Configure the Crazyflie Android client =====
+Here are the necessary steps to configure the Crazyflie Android client:
+  - Turn on the Taranis
+  - Connect the Taranis with a USB cable and a USB host (OTG) adapter to the Android device
+    * The Taranis screen should display a USB symbol when it's connected
+  - Check that all sticks are in center position
+  - Open the Crazyflie Android client
+  - Go to Preferences -> **Controller Settings** and switch Controller to Gamepad
+  - Go to **Gamepad axis and button mapping** and configure the following axes
+    * Right analog X axis should be AXIS_Y
+    * Right analog Y axis should be AXIS_Z
+    * Left analog X axis should be AXIS_RX
+    * Left analog Y axis should be AXIS_X
+  - Depending on the mode you are using on the Taranis (Mode 1 or 2), set the Mode in the Android app
+    * Preferences -> **Flight control settings** -> **Mode**
+===== Use the Taranis X9D (Plus) with the Crazyflie Android client =====
+  - Before connecting to the Crazyflie, check that all axes are working (values should change in the Android app)
+  - **Attention: Always make sure that the thrust stick is all the way down before connecting to the Crazyflie** :!:
+  - Connect to the Crazyflie 2 over BLE
+    * If you have a Crazyflie 1 you need to use a (powered) USB hub to connect both the Taranis RC transmitter and the Crazyradio USB dongle
+  - Fly the Crazyflie with the Taranis and have fun! :-D
